TeXShop is a nice basic TeX editor/frontend for OS X. It's the oldest 
one around, but keeps things simple and uncluttered. The other bonus is 
that it interacts with TeTeX, which tends to be the TeX implementation 
found mostly on Linux. However, this editor is not, as far as I'm 
aware, available for Linux. See: 
http://www.uoregon.edu/~koch/texshop/texshop.html and 
http://www.rna.nl/tex.html

iTeXMac is a lot more up to date, but I am not familiar with it. It 
certainly looks good though. See: http://itexmac.sourceforge.net/

Can't help you directly with Linux or Windows, I'm afraid, as I don't 
TeX in those environments, but anyway, welcome to the world of TeX! :-)
